A two-part presentation entitled " Paleoseismology in Greece and the Greek Database of Seismogenic Sources" has been presented at the 2nd INQUA - IGCP 567 International Workshop on Active Tectonics, Earthquake Geology, Archaeology and Engineering that has taken place at Isthimia, Corinth Gulf, on 19-24 September 2011 (for more information on the workshop, check www.paleoseismicity.org).

This presentation consists of a brief overview of the paleoseismological research in Greece performed by the Earthquake Geology Group of the Department of Geology at the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki, as well as the current state-of-the-art of the Greek Database of Seismogenic Sources (Gre.Da.S.S.), an ongoing effort to collect, review and critically compile data about seismogenic sources (active faults) of Greece and the surrounding areas.
